COVID-19 - On the Ground

[PhDhawk]

This seems reasonable.

"Whoever wants to refuse the vaccination outright, he should, please also always carry a document with the inscription: 'I don't want to be vaccinated!'" Wolfram Henn, a human geneticist, told Bild on Saturday. "I want to leave the protection against the disease to others! I want, if I get sick, to leave my intensive care bed and ventilator to others."

Sadly, this joke will make a hell of a lot of sense in a few weeks’ time.

How Moderna’s Vaccine Works

[NewtonHawk11]

Wife now 3 days in to vaccine. No issues whatsoever. Was a bit tired in the afternoon after she got it in the morning. But other than the typical arm soreness where shot happened, everything is completely normal.

Mrs 99 had some aches in her joints the day after. Nothing much since.

Was thinking why is it any different in asking people to wear a mask than asking people to wear a seat belt?
Clic-it or ticket
Mask up or ?? Thoughts?

Keep thinking of all the things that are regulated for public safety, and masks is the one that became politicised. Seems so arbitrary.

Why not pasteurization? How come no one defends the rights of food workers to not wash their hands? I think "keep refrigerated after opening" labels should be banned...no jar of mayonnaise is gonna tell me where to store it...you fucking sheep who refrigerate things...it's all just big refrigerator trying to control you....cold is a hoax.

I would also think public health is part of the reason why state laws don’t let you just hang out with your wang out.

BUT MAH RIGHTS!!!





...oh come on you guys, cut me some slack, I was in the pool.

Or rock out with your cock out?

That's what you're talkin' 'bout?

This is a perfect example of why I am extremely hesitant to get on a plane right now.
Once you're on and you're in the air - there is no getting off - and you're fucked.

[ousdahl]

Dang! Hang in there!

Hang in there Trad and Mrs. Trad! Scary situation and one that is never ideal. Hoping for the best.

[ousdahl]

Hopefully it wasn’t covid related, and MIL went just for some bumps and bruises from riding her motorcycle off an Evil Knievel ramp?

(Sorry, just going for comic relief)

[Deleted User 89]

not sure if she’s worsened or just not improved

they live in St. Joe, but she said a couple days ago that she’d go to Maryville if it came down to it...not sure why, or if that’s what ended up happening

shitty situation all around

[jhawks99]

Hope she gets well soon.

[defixione]

Hoping for the best, Trad. Maybe Maryville has empty ICU beds?
